Hello, everybody. I’ve been looking for a new storage solution. I know, that HDDs are reliable and SSDs are for fast access, but I’ve been an HDD user ever since. I have an SSD, but I only have the OS on it. Likewise, I want to do some basic File operations, as writing documents or copy files. It would also be great if I could use it as a Backup kind of sorts device. It would be great if I could move my data from my old WD-Elements external HDD, quickly, to an intern HDD without any fuss. I just need a Storage medium that’s cheap and good. Do you have any recommendations? Thanks in advance!

    IMO, its just about how much storage you need and how much money you can spend. 1TB SSD cost almost the same as HDD. Higher capacity will make SSD much more expensive while HDD is getting cheaper.

    Go with SSD if you can afford it, but none of them is reliable. Backup is your friend
